National Highways says a road traffic collision has caused ‘severe’ congestion clockwise between junctions J24 and J25. The traffic should let up by 1.45pm, with delays of about 10 minutes to journeys expected.

A man has died after being hit by a lorry as he stood on the hard shoulder of the M25 near the Dartford Crossing in the early hours, police have said. The road has been closed between Junction 29 for the A127 and Junction 30 at the A13 after the incident on Sunday which involved a lorry and two men.

There are severe delays on the M25 in Surrey as an accident has closed two lanes. The crash was on the M25 clockwise from J11 A320 St Peter's Way (Chertsey) to J12 M3. There is congestion to Cobham Services, two miles before J10 Wisley. Vehicles are queueing back to J13 Staines. Drivers should expect delays to their journeys.

Drivers on the M25 face every motorist’s worst nightmare after a lorry fire- a huge queue that could take two hours to navigate. The lorry caught fire this morning near junction J6 Godstone on the clockwise carriageway of the busy motorway in Surrey.

National Highways has warned motorists are facing up to three hours of delay on the M25 in light of an incident.

Motorists face delays of up to three hours on a section of the M25 after a "serious" lorry fire. National Highways reported 11 miles (17.1km) of congestion on Friday morning after two lanes of the clockwise carriageway between junction five,
